The Large Scale mixed media artworks of Naples, Florida Artist Bonny Hawley are the large wall solution for private and coporate clients. Bonny weaves from the fabrics of ancient worlds and threads of her imagination to create her mysterious flowing spiritual works. Her art celebrates life and stimulates the spirit. The work consists of acrylic mixed media collage, oil glazing, and cold wax medium and involves monoprinting, stenciling, metallic paints, gold and silver leaf and hand painted papers on raw silk and linen. The pieces can be made to any size configuration and can hang like a tapestry or be framed. Her newest works are built on gallery wrap wooden boxes and canvas. The artwork is acrylic, light fast and the tapestry pieces roll for easy shipping. The artwork is sold and exhibited in fine galleries around the country and featured in private and corporate collections in the US and in Europe.
